介绍（中）	这个罐子有一个球形的身体，一个扁平的底座和一个狭窄的嘴。一个管状的壶嘴从底部附近冒出来，通过一个环形把手连接到壶肩上，这个把手足够一根手指使用。这个罐子是用红褐色的粘土做成的，经过抛光处理。它很可能是在后来添加了喷口的轮子上制作的这个罐子是在伊朗中部卡山附近的Tepe Sialk发掘的。Sialk是一座设防城镇的遗址，建于公元前一千年初。在距离该城镇几百码的地方，有一个大型墓地，1933年至1937年间探索过它的考古学家称之为墓地B。坟墓是由石头或粘土制成的倾斜屋顶覆盖的坑，除了死者的尸体外，还包括珠宝、武器、皮甲、马饰和陶瓷器皿，包括许多类似的罐子。这个罐子的作用还不清楚。它太小了，不能用作服务船。它可能在被放入坟墓之前被用于葬礼仪式。
介绍（英）	This jug has a globular body, a flat base and a narrow mouth. A tube-like spout emerges from near the base and is connected to the shoulder of the jug by a loop handle, large enough for a single finger. The jug is made from a red-brown clay, and has been burnished. It was likely made on a wheel with the spout added later. This jug was excavated at Tepe Sialk, near Kashan in central Iran. Sialk was the site of a fortified town, constructed in the early first millennium B.C. Several hundred yards from the town there was a large cemetery, called Necropolis B by the archaeologists who explored it between 1933 and 1937. The graves were pits covered with pitched roofs made of stone or clay, and in addition to the bodies of the dead they contained jewelry, weapons, leather armor, horse trappings and ceramic vessels, including many similar jugs. The jug’s function is unclear. It is too small to have been used as a serving vessel. Possibly it was used in a funerary ritual before it was placed in the grave.
